没错，修辞考题原文！！
这种好运都给我们碰到…大家今晚记得去买个彩券！
同学考完试时回来和助教回忆了一道SC的题目，
同学叙述的句子大意和曾经看过的The Economist某篇文章很像，
找出文章和同学确认后，同学说句子超像的！ (修辞题目的来源竟然是The Economist！)
不过句子画线的部分同学已经记得不是很清楚了，不过可以确定就是本文章的第二句。
They may not be about to conquer the world, but their ranks are swelling fast.
A record 85,000 industrial robots were installed last year, according to the
United Nations. Of the 712,000 robots reckoned to have been in operation at the
end of last year, 413,000 were in Japan, where there was one robot for every 36
people employed in manufacturing. Second-placed America is far behind, with
only 77,100 robots, but it is catching up. Its robot numbers are forecast to
jump 49% to 114,800 by the end of 2001, while Japan's will rise only 5% to
433,400. Worldwide, the number of robots is expected to reach 873,100 by the
end of 2001, an increase of 23%. Part of the reason for this fast growth is
that robot prices are falling quickly, while human labour costs continue to
rise.
所幸同学上课有follow莫老师的教诲，在读清句意后，利用规则和技巧，选出了和原文一样
的答案。 同学说，印象中本题有考莫老师上课教授的16条规则中的“平衡法(and的平衡)”
、还有“流水句(run-on sentence)”、“虚字there”，此外还有好像某几个选项还有“句
子结构错误(没有主要子句)”，不过这不打紧，把第二句看熟了，稳稳地拿分就好！
提醒很多粗心的同学，不少修辞考题的选项中，会有一个看似漂亮但却是run-on的句子，请
同学考试的时候得把眼睛张大，确认句子结构，发现是run-on sentence就直接砍答案了，
不需纠结。
此外，在题目一边读选项的时候，也记得要顺便确认句子的结构(尤其是长句)，不少同学常
常会粗心选到“没有主要子句”或是“主要子句有主词没动词”的选项。这种错误是非常不
应该的！
